Samsung Hope Relay

To support the Olympic Torch Relay which started wending its way around UK this week, Samsung has pledged to donate £1 to local charities for every mile you run which is tracked by their ‘Samsung Hope Relay’ app.

It runs on Smart phones, and is really simple to use. It simply tracks your distance (using GPS) and time taken, and when you’ve finished it uploads the details. I’m running it on my Android phone, but there are also versions for iOS (that’s Apple, isn’t it?!) and Samsung Apps.
